Caroline

Caroline is a sweet, shy, 2-year-old tabby. Once she gets to know you, she is a total cuddle bug. She and her foster mom often enjoy hour-long petting sessions. She purrs up a storm!

Caroline was a formerly feral cat. She was found outside and is now enjoying life in the safe and warm indoors. Because she was found outside, Caroline is slowly learning how to not be afraid of humans through socialization, and she'll need a month or two to get used to her new home and parent. She is initially afraid, but she will soon happily accept pets and treats. If you have a quiet home and are willing to take the time to let a cat get used to you, Caroline is your girl.
